Wild West Beef Jerky Hot & Spicy

Wild West's spice-led variant — chilli flakes, smoked paprika, jalapeno flakes, garlic, black pepper. Different recipe from the rest of the Wild West range: no soy sauce, no apple cider vinegar, no pineapple. The lowest-sugar, lowest-calorie bag in the lineup, and the only one without soy.

A different recipe entirely

Most Wild West jerky leans on a sweet-savoury cure built around demerara sugar, soy, apple cider vinegar, and pineapple. Hot & Spicy takes a different path: real chilli flakes, smoked paprika, jalapeno flakes, and garlic powder do the heavy flavour lifting, with a much smaller demerara sugar component to balance. The heat is layered (smoky paprika underneath, jalapeno warmth on top of that, chilli flakes for the spike), and the result is the spiciest Wild West makes — without sliding into sweet-heat territory.
